You have the Mangekyou Sharingan...5(2b): You harbor many secrets, stopped wars...and possess a great many jutsu and abilities.6: Itachi...you possessed those things in order to create yourself.7: There is not a finer target for my Edo tensei.8: My pawns are my power, plain and simple.

2)1: You overestimate me...I failed.2: No...despite how much I may try and act tough to defy the name of Uchiha...3: zah4: the truth is, I envy it.5(2b): The name of Uchiha is simply a way to show one's ties, one's roots. Simply taking a name like that has no meaning.6: throb7: It has meaning!

All those who cannot acknowledge themselves will fail.6(2b): Me...fail, now? 7: How?!
